Chinese New Year 2009

Chinese New Year was celebrated in Sarikei this year. I went back miri on the 22nd and back to sarikei the next day. My heart feels warmed again after being away from family for almost 4 months and it's really nice to spend time with them during the new year. Ox year has definitely brings lots of rain to Sarawak. Miri itself has 2 major landslide, Sibu and Kuching is flooded and Miri - Bintulu road has been blocked several times due to landslide as well. Hopefully everything is gonna be fine after this. Perhaps i'll just sum up everything i did during new year in pictures with caption before i went off again to Genting tomorrow.. hehe =]

1. Shopping!!!
It's a tradition for us chinese to get new clothes each new year =p This year, i've been to several malls and got myself some good
